Uniformed gang cops not welcome at Vancouver Law Courts

Last year, when a number of gang cases were going on simultaneously at the Vancouver Law Courts, the uniformed gang squad walked through the hallways and even into a couple of the courtroooms. It was a very visible reminder that the downtown courthouse would not be a good location to continue the many conflicts existing between various gangs, groups and individuals.

Well there are even more gang trials going on right now at the building at 800 Smithe with even more due to begin in the new year. Yet, the uniformed gang squad within the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit is no longer allowed inside the glass-roofed building.

No one from the B.C. government court services was able to comment on this change when I contacted them yesterday. Hopefully they’ll have some answers today. The same anti-gang police were inside Surrey Provincial Court a few weeks back when Glen Sheck’s gun cases was continuing there. So there appears to be a different policy now for Supreme Court than for provincial.

Once upon a time there was a little boy..
He grew up to be a bully/crook, so some people gave him the title Gangster.
He profits by stealing from others, distributing drugs, having women sell themselves, the list goes on..
He has money in his bank account, acting like it actually belongs to him. He has people working for him like he has a business to be proud of. He walks around like he’s ‘entitled’ to his fancy cars and fancy clothes. He smiles as if he has a reason. He ‘acts’ though he deserves respect, as if he respects others. He claims to have compassion towards his family and friends as if he even knows the meaning. He intimidates others by ‘hiding’ a gun in his pocket. He says, he’s not afraid of anything or anyone, yet he ‘hides’ from people, and ‘lies’ about his profession. He thinks he’s brave when he pays others to do his dirty work. He laughs at people when he is the joke. He kills people as if he has the right.
He lives his life this way for about 10 years if he’s lucky.
He is murdered.
The End.

I would like to say thank you to all of the police officers and IGTF for their presence within all of our communities. What irritates me is that the general public seems to know how to police our communities better than the police themselves. The public watched to much TV and then they become experts. Plus our judicial system is ass backwards as a lot of these gangsters are free to act like dickheads on the streets. Our province needs tougher sentencing and more stand alone tribal police officers as first nation gangs are on the rise.
Thank you Kim B for all of your report over the years. I really like your articles and reporting style.
On a second note I have seen a couple of fellas in Victoria with the word DEUCE tattooed on there arms and necks. I believe Deuce is a first nation gang from the streets of Winnipeg.

Kim has never protected AOD on this blog, if so i must have missed that, AOD was just a messed up poster who from time to time would post something get into blog fights and move on, Yomant is just his new name. That is all nothing else has changed other than Yomant hate AOD or i guess himself. Kim has the real scoop blog, i like reading it. I am sure now i am AOD to omg. AOD was just a friend of someone who knew so dealers probably ran some lines and never made it and dropped names.

Tubinator JR how did it feel to shoot at Jamie bacon when he hit the earls parking lot? Sikh DAKHs right hand man b4 he was with dakh poped off at Jamie bacon then he hit earls him and a guy name Ginny from Abby 🙂 drive a black f150 harley 😉

This sounds like a turf war between the cops and the sheriff’s. Maybe the gang cops tossed a little too much weight around for the sheriff’s liking. Note the comment about how the sheriff’s are equipped to handle any problems.

Lol MS-13 are a joke, their notoriety is all because of the media and not actually doing anything besides being unorganized thugs in 3rd world countries. Years of tabloid Fox news journalism and American paranoia hype “Super Gangs from Central America! In your town” They don’t even run border towns in Guatemala let alone up here

lame if you go down to los angeles , you will see MS-13 is very alive and real. sure they are a joke in Canada , they may be unorganized i wont disagree , but there level of violence makes any of your B.C. G’z look like cup cakes , they are linked up with Los Zetas in Mexico. If that isnt connections then i dont know what is.

lame I’d love to see you walk up to them with your gucci murse, northface jacket and true religion jeans and see how you end up at the side of the road with your kidneys pulled out and sent to some kid in El Salvador for Kidney translplant and rest of the body shipped to Mexico/US border for stuffing cocaine you dipshit clueless soft country living faggot. nobody in Canada can handle MS13’s level of violence.these guys are ruthless killers with no remorse for human lives. you better hope these guys don’t ever show up here or shit will be fucked up specially with the weak ass Canadian laws we have for murders and all.

Bait gangsters? Yeah because a building with dozens of sherrifs and cops in it is going to be a great spot to clip someone. Educate yourself because you’re coming off stupid. The reason gang task force shouldn’t be allowed to sit in on court hearings is because it is unfair for the person on trial. How would you like if you were on trial and the entire gang task force came in and sat on the prosecutions side to show the judge you’re “bad news”. Everyone has a right to a fair trial

I hit a sore spot hey? I guess I am right to spark such irritation, lol. I can feel the annoyance thru your responses. Hahahaha. Bindy u a cop and Kim is a cop lover. I think it’s a to bait a possible retaliation shooting. Just my opinion. How more obvious could it be? If you were concerned about a safety issue the last thing u would report is the lack of police where a high profile gangster and the brother of the dead gangster (2010 Dhak hit still having ripple effect – police) location and that there are no GTF cops. I dunno if I was a criminal (and they all mostly pretty fkn stupid) I would get the bright idea to possibly go at somone in a vulnerable no police presence situation. YOur article proves my point “It was a very visible reminder that the downtown courthouse would not be a good location to continue the many conflicts existing between various gangs, groups and individuals” Maybe this is a GOOD LOCATION seeing as there are less cops.

You are thinking only about criminals under threat because of their own conduct. I am thinking/writing for the benefit of the whole community. Using your logic, they shouldn’t even be charged because then there is a public proceeding that is written up on online court lists which could put them at risk. Or maybe we should close the courtroom and have secret trials? I don’t think so. I am a journalist doing my job to expose problems that exist so they will hopefully be fixed. And when you accuse me if being on the take, it is offensive. Remember we also published a photo of Riach and covered his court hearing.

And clearly you don’t read too carefully. The uniformed gang cops are not there. There is other security.

There are armed sheriffs at the courthouse. There are some undercover police and there are officers testifying at trials. The story was about a decision to keep the Uniformed gang officers out of the building, despite them being there last year when these big gang cases were all on at the same time (as they are now.) The point of the story was to let the public know about this issue.

Hey Yomant i guess you scared off your buddy you enjoyed to attempt to bully and it worked, now who will you argue with? I had so much fun reading your rants. Every blog needs a retard, now we just have to get rid of you. Any chance you can scare yourself off of here? Officer.

What is really strange is during that interaction with himself he pretended to have Kim boost his credibility and I called him on his BS….Kim erased both comments, Kim seems to protect AOD (and 100 other names) and you almost never see her mention him or reply to his posts directly…..Things that make you go hmmmm

What are you talking about? I erased the post because someone was pretending to be me who wasn’t me. I will continue to do that and to erase other inappropriate comments. I am trying to respond to fewer and fewer comments on here – particularly the long ones like those posted by AOD – because I just don’t have time. I am already putting in at least 2 hours in the evening on this AFTER working all day. The more comments I write, the more time it takes.

I wasn’t trying to offend you Kim. I just find it strange that the only time (iv ever seen) you acknowledge him is to protect/stick up for him, and it seems he gets away with a lot when it comes to name dropping people

That being said I guess it made sense to erase my post if you erased his because my post would no longer make sense. I guess I think a better response would have been to clarify it wasnt you in the post, that way every one could see the clown for who he is

You may think a better response would be for me to answer or clarify his comment and other things said on here. But I can’t. There are not enough hours in the day. I am usually on this blog on and off starting at 7:30 am and ending at 1 am and I have to go cover stories and do other work during the day. (not to mention living my off-blog life!)

Lol, Yomant is a one of those bloggers you can not get rid of, on the other hand anyone who posted any real information was labeled AOD by Yomant and i have never read one comment under any of Yomant’s many names that had any gangster information and i think whoever Yomant was posting against pissed him off because he assumes anyone is AOD. Its an odd fascination and mental disorder i am sure pills could help with. This blog has lost its reputation as a place for good gossip if i may call it that, mainly because all the old bloggers are dead, in jail or have vanished. But i have been reading this blog from the very beginning and the guys who have left are often copied but never the same as the old ones. I think this is an attempt to sniff out anyone left. But who am i to judge. I have used 1 name since the beginning and still do. I do think the people who have vanished read this, in fact i am sure of it. I would like to see a good old fashioned post again blasting gangsters and outing them like when this blog started up. I have a feeling after one of the guys read my post they will post something. Crossing my fingers.

How did RS start, who did they learn from? How did RS connect with Larry and Gino? Why Jaime Bacon had such hate for the U.N, Background on DK and Anton(not banned info) and if someone can answer that then they are one of the vanished. Good luck Chuck. Better yet, Yomant can you answer that? Don’t mind me i watch the blogs 24/7.

If Yomant is AOD and probably is, He is the most fucked up posted in all of the blog…..How can you keep track of 100+names and rant against yourself that does sound like Yomant. But on the other hand AOD was just a copy for the real deal we all know that and he was(Banned by courts)

Do explain, How does this blog benefit from your post? Not that i have quarrel with you. I am just asking Sir Crackhead, i mean crack is bad for you. The above comments do pose as a threat to Yomants credibility and the fact he even posts. Like a virus you can not get rid of(Jarod knows about that LOL omfgrotflmao)

My info is that it was requested by the defense lawyers – apparently the Officers were and have been harassing friends family of those on trial in the lobby outside etc, also there was a complaint that the marked officers prejudice the jurors by their presence etc.

This may well be a precursor for a GUN BATTLE in or about the Court – or elsewhere while the trials are going on! Since the last Dahk is alive, someone is pulling rank and strings to have this seriously unstable environment occur! These situations do not just happen by chance!!!

GUN BATTLE ??? r u fucking kidding lol as if any of these punks would ever pull a gun when they know someone with one is ready for it !! no no no all they can do is run up and shoot someone in the face by surprise .

Almost Done!
